  • Career development with an international company where you can grow the career you dream of.

  • Employees can qualify for free medical coverage in our Health Investment Plan (HIP) PPO medical plan in the next calendar year

THE OPPORTUNITY

This Senior Data Engineer position can work out remotely within the U.S.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

  • Design, implement, and optimize Apache Spark jobs to define, schedule, monitor, and control data processes.

  • Design and implement real-time data pipelines using technologies such as Apache Kafka, AWS Kinesis, or Azure Event Hubs for ingestion, transformation, and delivery of high-volume data streams.

  • Develop and maintain stream-processing applications using Apache Flink or Spark Structured Streaming, ensuring low-latency data availability.

  • Develop, test and deploy algorithms for large-scale machine learning in a production environment.

  • Optimize Spark jobs to maximize speed, scalability and compliance with data-use regulations.

  • Manage robust data pipelines: acquisition, transformation, and processing workflows.

  • Perform advanced data processing and exploratory analysis

  • Build and deploy machine learning models using Spark or MapReduce, and present results through intuitive visualizations.

  • Collaborate with other spark developers and back-end data engineers to design and develop interactive Spark pipelines.

  • Develop and maintain REST APIs to manage Spark jobs and facilitate data workflows.

  • Ensure seamless integration of pipelines with distributed file and database systems.  

QUALIFICATIONS

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related field.

  • Minimum 10 years in building and optimizing data processing pipelines.

  • Experience in Apache Spark, including Spark SQL, RDD, DataFrame, Dataset APIs, and PySpark.

  • Experience with API-based data delivery for dashboards, enabling REST/GraphQL endpoints or data applications to retrieve live metrics.

  • Proficient knowledge of the Apache Kafka ecosystem (brokers, topics, partitions, consumer groups, schema registry, KSQL, Kafka Connect).

  • In-depth understanding of Spark internals and real-time streaming technology (e.g., Kafka, KSQL, etc.)

  • Strong experience with big data processing tools

  • Familiarity with ETL tools and expertise in managing post-loading transformations.

  • Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure for building Apache Spark clusters

  • Understanding of machine learning algorithms and their application in large-scale data environments.

  • Familiarity with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, or others).

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with a proven ability to work cross functionally with analysts, scientists and developers.
